Maxine Taylor Hickman, 85, of Stephens City, VA, passed away Thursday, June 23, 2022 peacefully at her home.

Maxine was born in 1936 in Bicknell, IN the daughter of the late Maxwell and Dorothea Taylor. She was a graduate of Arsenal Tech, Class of 1954. She was born and raised in Indianapolis and moved to Frederick County after her husband’s retirement in 1973. She worked as a nursing assistant for a short period of time at Winchester Memorial Hospital, then worked as a store manager for the 7-11 in Stephens City. She eventually retired from the Federal Government as a training administrator. Maxine would say that her greatest joy was raising and taking care of her family while being stationed overseas as an Army wife. Maxine enjoyed sewing, collecting pottery and china pieces, and was an avid reader. Maxine’s greatest loves and joys were her family and doting on her grandchildren.

She married Raymond Leon Hickman, Jr. on September 10, 1954 in Indianapolis, IN.

Maxine is survived by her husband, Raymond; daughters, Cathryn Silvius (Don) of Inwood, WV, Brenda Farmer (Donnie) of Winchester, VA; son, Glenn Hickman (Maria) of Middletown, VA; grandchildren, Tiffany, Noelle, Shaun, Brett, Alyssa, Austin, Alexandra, Kayla, Ryan, and Megan; great grandchildren, Jadyn, Haven, Parker, Ryleigh, Vivian, Alice, and Elenor; daughter in law, Teresa Hickman of Gore, VA; and her canine companion, Scruffy. She had one sister, Joan Stevenson.

She is preceded in death by her parents; son, Keith Hickman; brothers, Charles, Stanley, and Marvin Taylor; and her canine companion, Molly.

In memory of Maxine Taylor Hickman, Hannah Cochran lit a candle

She was always there for you when you needed help even if it was with something small. Her wit was unmatched. When she had something to say, she'd say it. She always had this aura of mystique, too, and always kept you guessing. I admired her a lot. Grandma, I hope that you're feeling better now. I love you, and I'll miss you.

You and Paps helped Mom raise me, and you were always there when I needed help or just wanted to come over for dinner and chat. Your kindness and love shaped who I am today. No amount of words can even begin to express how much I miss you.

Maxine - you fullfilled your life's objective and MORE and left BIG shoes to fill. Go in peace, my friend. Much love.

Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.

Marcia Harker I will always remember her smile and laughter. So sorry, my prayers are with you all.?

Glenn and Maria and family, so sorry and my God be with you all.

In memory of Maxine Hickman. Your joy in our Family will be missed.

I am so sorry for your loss. She was an amazing woman. She loved her husband and family so much and it showed.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
